The UFC has now revealed a fresh group of opponents who are just as formidable and tough, which should heighten the excitement. According to the news from ESPN reporter, Brett Okamoto, Max Holloway, the #1 featherweight, will return to the octagon on April 15. There should definitely be a highly resilient fighter to stand against Holloway, and that will be #4-ranked Arnold Allen. In his MMA career, ‘Blessed’ has achieved 23 wins out of 30 bouts, and ‘Almighty’ has a record of 19-1.

Fans have different kinds of reactions to the upcoming fight

When it comes to UFC fans, it is true that everyone has their own preferences. In his fighting career, Holloway undoubtedly experienced his share of highs and lows. He battled Alexander Volkanovski in three matches, all of which he lost. The former featherweight champion, however, had a tremendous victory when he faced off against Calvin Kattar and Yair Rodriguez. When it comes to Arnold Allen, he has won all the matches he has fought in the UFC. Hence, fans too have different opinions about who would win.

The MMA community, including Okamoto and the Georgian mixed martial artist Giga Chikadze, gave their reactions.
